You might have been dreaming Chris. CLICK HERE!

So if my link above is correct, we were only one sport behind the US - 19 GB and 20 USA

The USA won across 14 sports https://www.google.co.uk/#q=united%20states%20rio%202016%20medals - the UK across 16 -https://www.google.co.uk/#q=Great+Britain+Rio+2016 according to these search results..

Team 'GB' plus N.I .. won LESS  medals across more sports ..(I was wrong)TEAM'GB' 22 USA 25



I have never claimed to be a Blue Beret

Spurious claims about 'seeing action' with the Blue Berets are debunked >here<

Not withstanding the problems that Russia created with there PED's program. There were numerous amazing moments.

A 52 year old cancer survivor winning a gold medal.

A prior gold medal winner retiring to save the life of her steed.

Another athlete donated his medal so that a young girl could receive a life saving operation.

There were numerous other highlights of athletes accomplishing there dreams. Might be time to focus on that.

Even more incredible is that he lost 2 years of his life !! ;)

'Santi' - as he is known - is 54

Used to race Tornado cats ...  His last race - medal race - was incredible - he had to do TWO penalties and STILL got the gold ...JUST ...Normally doing penalty turns at this level should mean that race is ruined ..I'm three years older and think I'm I useful helm -at club level ... this guy is INCREDIBLE and his sons were representing Argentina in another class.

Who was the French (wo)man Marmesucu playing tennis?

Regarding the Williams and a host of others I think it has to do with Ritalin.
